Description
Reading and hearing about stars, planets, and galaxies is all very good, but real astronomical observatories seem far away and off-limits for an introductory student. It'd be nice if someone came up with a more efficient way to access astronomical data and explore the cosmos. Luckily, someone did. With a single login for WebAssign, you can explore the universe, connect with your instructor, and have access to interactive Virtual Astronomy Labs all in one place! Not your usual end of chapter homework problems, these are fully featured learning activities. Each item incorporates a guiding narrative, images, animations, interactive simulations and data analysis tools that allow you to learn by doing.

Michael A. Seeds has been Professor of Physics and Astronomy at Franklin and Marshall (F&M) College in Lancaster, Pennsylvania, since 1970. In 1989, he received F&M College's Lindback Award for Distinguished Teaching. Seeds' love for the history of astronomy led him to create upper-level courses on Archaeoastronomy and Changing Concepts of the Universe. His research interests focus on variable stars and the automation of astronomical telescopes. Mike is coauthor with Dana Backman and Michele Montgomery of HORIZONS HYBRID: EXPLORING THE UNIVERSE, Thirteenth Edition, and UNIVERSE HYBRID: SOLAR SYSTEM, STARS AND GALAXIES, Eighth Edition, both published by Cengage Learning.
